@beetlemania, The CS 2.4's measure closer to 2 Ohms than they do to 4 Ohms. As there is a direct correspondence model between static impedance figures and sensitivity, measurements are typically made at such fixed points. I don't agree with your a...

@beetlemania, @jafant,https://www.manualslib.com/manual/170241/Thiel-Cs2-4.html?page=5#manualThe CS 2.4's are spec'd at :87 dB@2.87 V -1mand suggests a minimum of 100 Watts per channelI would offer that even accounting for gain from room lift and ...

@jafant,  Wow, 4 years! Did you ever get amplification for those Thiel’s? 
Thiel Owners
@tomthiel, there are different reasons for different things. If you think the 3.6's are a better product to cut your teeth on for this project, so be it. 
Thiel Owners
@tomthiel, I think your 3 series division is most logical. There is much respective overlaps there. The division also corresponds to amplification requirements of their respective eras, earlier models >4Ohms, later models <3 Ohms, and what u...

@tomthiel, I guess you like the flat drivers. :-).The other reason I’d be some what less interested in an updated 3.6 is the amplifier straining impedance load, without the redeeming lobing fix. 
Thiel Owners
@tomthiel, the flat concentric mid/tweeter of the 3.7’s are of greater interest to me than the 3.6’s separate drivers. I would imagine the concentric driver could go a long way towards ameliorating lobing issues?

@tomthiel, understood. Could the parameters of the original woofers be modified to make them more appropriate?

FWIW, IMHO, @riaa_award_collectors_on_facebook  (that's a handful) :-),  post might have been a tad harsh.@briano, 's response was truly funny. Briano, your comments regarding reviewers is not unique and we have read similar comments before. But, ...

@warjarrett, I'm envious of your potential setup! I'm confident that such a configuration will compete with systems that cost multiplies of your proposed Thiel system.I'm not trying to tell you what to do or how to decorate,  but...,there is a str...

@warjarrett, Perhaps 2 SS1's might work for you?

@warjarrett, tomthiel set you right. Two subs are better than one. Especially for two channel music as opposed to the .1 output for home theatre. Unlike HT with it’s dedicated sub channel, when using one sub for two channel sources, the bass frequ...

Haha!
